Lokyee Szeto is a photographer based in Aotearoa. Lover of dancing, adventures and capturing the moments that life has to offer.

Kia ora! If you’re looking for a photographer you’ve come to the right place.

I have a passion for storytelling and capturing life’s most cherished moments. Photography, for me, is more than just a profession; it’s a way to preserve memories and tell meaningful stories. My journey began with ballet photography, where I fell in love with freezing the beauty and grace of fleeting moments. Over time, my lens has expanded to capture the people, relationships, and events that bring joy and meaning to life. From weddings and engagements to birthdays and concerts, every moment tells a story worth remembering.

Take a look at the gallery to explore some of the incredible memories and stories I’ve been honoured to document over the years.

Lokyee was the best choice to photograph our wedding day, she made us feel so comfortable and all of the preparation she did made it easy for us. We are over the moon with our wedding photos, all our special moments are captured so beautifully and not one experience was overlooked which we are so grateful for.
